Tech + CCSS = Engaging Lessons Tuesday - 12:15pm - 1:45 pm Oak presented by Valerie Burton, West Jefferson High School Description: What does it look like when you integrate technology into your Common Core classroom? ~Google Forms to activate background knowledge or serve as an exit ticket. ~Piclits and Images to identify tone and provide a deeper meaning ~Wikis to examine author’s style or collect student made materials ~Blogs to analyze and reflect upon text (written or visual). ~Padlet to post questions about nonfiction or fiction ~Publishing ePortfolios.
In order for students to become college and career ready, they must learn to read and comprehend complex texts independently and proficiently.
To develop these skills, students must be presented with many opportunities to read and re-read complex, layered texts and be provided with numerous strategies and activities.
Why just write with pen on paper when you can post to
your own website?
Tech + CCSS Integrating technology into your classes can
help to cover Common Core State Standards.
Many tech tools can aid students in reading
and connecting with written and visual text.
Key Ideas and Details
R.1 Read closely to determine what the text says explicitly and to make logical inferences from it; cite specific textual evidence when writing or speaking to support conclusions drawn from the visual or written text.
R.2 Determine central ideas or themes of a visual or written text and analyze their development; summarize the key supporting details and ideas.
R.3 Analyze how and why individuals, events, or ideas develop and interact over the course of a visual or written text.
Craft and Structure
R.4 Interpret words and phrases as they are used in a visual or written text, including determining technical, connotative, and figurative meanings, and analyze how specific word or image choices shape meaning or tone.
R.5 Analyze the structure of visual or written texts, including how specific sentences, paragraphs, and larger portions of the text (e.g., a section, chapter, scene, or stanza) relate to each other and the whole.
R.6 Assess how point of view or purpose shapes the content and style of a visual or written text.
Integration of Knowledge and Ideas
R.7 Integrate and evaluate content presented in diverse media and formats, including visually and quantitatively, as well as in words.
R.8 Delineate and evaluate the argument and specific claims in a visual or written text, including the validity of the reasoning as well as the relevance and sufficiency of the evidence.
R.9 Analyze how two or more visual or written texts address similar themes or topics in order to build knowledge or to compare the approaches the authors take.
Range of Reading and Level of Text Complexity
R.10 Read and comprehend complex literary and informational texts independently and proficiently.

Using
Forms
Use Google
Docs
I used this form to gather
information about my students
It is easy to create
forms to get
information about
prior knowledge
for upcoming
projects, conduct
surveys, exit or
entrance tickets,
quizzes, etc.
Generate interest in the theme
or plot
Discuss the results
Check for prior knowledge (pretest) Check for acquired
knowledge (posttest)
The results are
populated into a
spreadsheet
It is easy to

Piclits
and
Images
•Using the images as the segue, introduce tone (the author’s attitude—stated or implied— toward a subject). The details in the images assist the viewer/audience in understanding how the artist sees the subject.
•Tone works the same way in a piece of writing: it is the author’s word choice
and details that assist the reader
/audience in understanding how
the writer sees the subject.
Essential Question: How does an author use diction and detail to
communicate tone to the reader?
Show students two ‘Got Milk’ ads and ask them to
write a
journal entry
describing
the images.
Image 1 Image 2
How does an author use diction and detail to communicate tone to the
reader? After examining two ads, write a paragraph that compares the two
images. Support your discussion with evidence from the text. Give examples from past or current events or issues to
illustrate and clarify your position.
If this image is a
‘symbol’ for our
next play, what
do you think
that the play is
about?
How does this image relate to
“To Kill a Mockingbird?”

Title: Streets of Manila
Use this picture to begin study of
Industrialism
Were the achievements and growth of the Industrial Revolution Era worth the cost to society? After reading secondary and primary sources pertaining to the British Industrial Revolution, write an argumentation essay that addresses the question and support your position with evidence from the texts. Be sure to acknowledge competing views.

Natural Radioactivity
In a time when radioactivity was an unknown, how did Marie Curie use her discoveries to prove radioactivity can be used as a new method for searching for elements? After reading her Nobel Prize Lecture, write a report in which you analyze Curie’s claim to have proved her own hypothesis that radioactivity is an atomic property, providing examples to clarify your analysis.

When we create multimedia projects we might be tempted to simply do a Google Images search and use the first images we see. But as
educators we have a responsibility to respect copyright holders' rights. One of the ways that we can do that is to use Creative
Commons and Public Domain images.
Why not teach them here…..?!?!?!?!?

Wikis

multiple people

*Each week, a team of four students
works between meetings of class sessions
to update an enhanced e-book that
includes the notes, lexicon entries, and
mindmaps for that week, with graphics,
text, and live links.
* In addition, e-book teams develop a
webpage on best practices and
procedures.

Real-time note-taking
and backchannel
• Teams of four take notes using a real-time note-taking handing off to another team every half hour, publishing their notes to the class site after the end of the class
session.
• Students can use collaborative tools to engage in parallel, relevant online discussion in real time through the web, Facebook, Twitter, or Facebook.
It is easy to
Blog
Posts
• to make regular updates
about assignments, events,
and anything going on in
class
• To engage students in their
learning and extend
collaboration with
classmates and even people
all over the world
*Students can be required to post a short (a few sentences
or a short paragraph) synopsis of each reading in the
student’s blog. Students can be requested to create
• a short dialog between the authors of each week’s texts
• list ways in which the subject of the texts could affect
the student’s life or society
• reflect on the implications of the texts for life online in
the future
• answer their own key questions from their own
perspective
